For the first eight months, just over 84,000 attempts to cross our border with our southern neighbor were prevented.

Against this background, the latest figures on migration pressure show that it has increased across the EU by nearly 86 percent compared to last year.

"We cannot do without manpower at the border. What we are taking as steps is to increase the number of border police there, so that border officers are trained and appointed. There are 1,000 border policemen under the staff of the Elhovo regional directorate."

We are seconding about 800 more from the various structures and about 500 more from our structures," said Dimitrova.

According to her, the Bulgarian border is not a broken yard.
